AbstractIntragranular ferrite (IGF), which nucleates from specific inclusion surfaces in low alloy steels, is the desired microstructure to improve mechanical properties of steel such as the toughness. This microstructure is especially important in the coarse grain heat affected zone (CGHAZ) of weldments. The latest review paper focusing on the role of non-metallic inclusions in the IGF formation in steels has been reported by Sarma et al. in 2009 (ISIJ int., 49(2009), 1063–1074). In recent years, large amount of papers have been presented to investigate different issues of this topic. This paper mainly highlights the frontiers of experimental and theoretical investigations on the effects of inclusion characteristics, such as the composition, size distribution and number density, on the IGF formation in low carbon low-alloyed steels, undertaken by the group of Applied Process Metallurgy, KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Related results reported in previous studies are also introduced. Also, plausible future work regarding various items of IGF formation is mentioned in each section. This work aims to give a better control of improving the steel quality during casting and in the heat affected zone (HAZ) of weldment, according to the concept of oxide metallurgy.

Welded high-temperature power plant components can experience a greater risk of failure by creep during service, when compared to similar as-wrought components. The heat-affected zone (HAZ) of alloy steels is usually the region of a weldment exhibiting poor mechanical properties. The arc welding of an ASTM A470, Class 8-rotor steel in this study identified the intercritical heat affected zone (ICHAZ) as the weakest region in terms of creep rupture life. The type of welding procedure significantly affects this region, but most important are the welding parameters utilized. Because of the microstructural heterogeneity of the HAZ and sensitivity of these microstructures to changes when exposed to elevated temperatures, their performance at later times is difficult to predict. Extrapolation techniques are limited in value for predicting service lives of homogeneous materials, because these do not incorporate the microstructure changes of the materials during high temperature operation. They are even less useful for predicting the operating lives of weldments. This paper considers the creep performance and structure stability of the ICHAZ of 12 percent Cr and 214-1Mo vanadium modified weldments produced on a retired CrMoV rotor steel.

Abstract HASTELLOY alloy B-2 has outstanding corrosion resistance in the as-welded condition. It is an improved wrought version of HASTELLOY alloy B with the same excellent corrosion resistance as alloy B, but with improved resistance to knife line and heat-affected zone attack. Alloy B-2 resists the formation of grain-boundry carbide precipitates in the weld heat-affected zone, thus making it suitable for most chemical process applications in the as-welded condition. This alloy also has excellent resistance to pitting and stress-corrosion cracking. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Ni-249. Producer or source: Stellite Division, Cabot Corporation.
